☃️ 🪻 🌞 🍹
- Brush: Chisel and Hound Ambrosia Maple with 26 mm synthetic Maggard knot
- Razor: Zwilling J. A. Henckels Friodur 14 (8/8", extra hollow ground, stainless steel)
- Lather: Barrister and Mann Lavanille (Excelsior)
- Aftershave: Chatillon Lux Pure Lavender
- Fragrance: Imaginary Authors Sundrunk
I told u/scribe__ that I’d join him for Sundrunk Sunday on the next sunny Sunday, and I’ve been looking forward to it. In the meanwhile, winter came back for one last hail Mary,
and I don’t care for it one bit. I’ll just pretend that it’s still shorts-and-barbecue-on-the-balcony weather for the purposes of this SOTD.
The big Frio is easily my best razor, and Excelsior is still one of the best bases IMO. No surprise I had a comfortable BBS relaxed Sunday morning shave.
Lavanille is one of the scents I prefer in the soap form over the splash. The soap scent is warm and rich, but the splash has a fresh note that seems out of place for me. Almost tart. Sharp aromatic Pure Lavender to the rescue!
And for the pièce de résistance, juicy Sundrunk. I’m ready for a bleak spring day at the indoor kids’ park.

Frio 15;
Can’t say it’s my best razor, but it is definitely in my top tier. I don’t have another razor with the same feathery feel.

I’m adding a candidate to the mix. I have another 14 incoming, this time a pre-Friodur Henckels

Now that will be interesting.

Yup, I’m impatient 😅
